Azuga

Updated by Dean Perry

Azuga offers state-of-the-art vehicle tracking that’s accurate, powerful, and easy to use. Azuga can be used to track the location of an asset and get odometer readings.

ToolHound can connect to your Azuga account to retrieve coordinates for any serialized inventory item with a Azuga tracking device. The device IMEI number must be entered as an Item ID, primary or alternate, in ToolHound for the associated item.

ToolHound Configuration

  1. An API Secret is generated when first entering the page. Use the Refresh button to the right to generate a new secret. This value is required when configuring the Azuga Webhook.
  2. If you wish to update service odometer readings from Azuga, check Update Service Reading?
    1. Choose the ToolHound user to associate with the meter reading. You could create a new mobile only user specifically for this purpose if you wish.
    2. Choose the meter that matches the Azuga odometer reading meter (Example: km or miles). There is one for metric and imperial meters. If the meter is not available in ToolHound, create a new meter first.
  3. Save the changes

Azuga Configuration

  3. Event Type: Choose GPS MESSAGE

  7. Authorization: Choose KEY
  8. Key / Value: Set the Key to ApiSecret and the Value to the key generated in ToolHound in Step 1 above.
  9. Email: Enter the email address of the person to receive a notification if the webhook fails to send properly.
  10. Paused: Leave as Off. You can pause the sending of GPS messages by setting to On.
  11. Click the Submit button to save the Webhook.

At any time you can disconnect Azuga to stop sharing meter readings and GPS data with your ToolHound database by deleting or pausing the webhook created above.

For On Premise installations, the server must have a public URL or IP address to accept the updates.
